Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of three methods of nutritional assessment in liver cirrhosis: subjective global assessment, traditional nutritional parameters, and body composition analysis.
TL;DR: Traditional nutritional assessment, although easier, underestimated the prevalence and severity of malnutrition in patients with cirrhosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum laminin, type IV collagen and hyaluronan as fibrosis markers in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
V.N. dos Santos,M.M.B. Leite-Mór,Mario Kondo,João Roberto Maciel Martins,Helena B. Nader,Valéria P. Lanzoni,E. Parise +6 more
TL;DR: Determination of extracellular matrix components in serum, especially of laminin, may identify patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and fibrosis and these components may be used as indicators for liver biopsy in these patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of liver cirrhosis on body composition: Evidence of significant depletion even in mild disease
TL;DR: The aims of this study were to quantify body composition changes, to determine tissue loss pattern, and to assess the relation of these to the severity of hepatic dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis: How to deal with this life-threatening cirrhosis complication?
Tarsila Campanha da Rocha Ribeiro,Julio Maria Fonseca Chebli,Mario Kondo,Pedro Duarte Gaburri,Liliana Andrade Chebli,Ana Cristina de Castro Amaral Feldner +5 more
TL;DR: The prompt use of empirical antibiotics, mostly cefotaxime, improves significantly the short-term prognosis of cirrhotic patients with SBP and antibiotic prophylaxis has been recommended in high-risk settings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Underlying mechanism of portal hypertensive gastropathy in cirrhosis: a hemodynamic and morphological approach.
Lílian Amorim Curvêlo,Walnei Brabosa,Rachel Rhor,Valéria P. Lanzoni,Edison Roberto Parise,Angelo Paulo Ferrari,Mario Kondo +6 more
TL;DR: The aim of the present cross‐sectional study was to evaluate the role of portal and systemic hemodynamic features, humoral factors and hepatocellular function in the development and severity of PHG in patients with cirrhosis.
